ADM:
For a second there I was very confused. There are two GODZ.

Wed. 2/23/11 9:07pm
efd:
yes, these are the Ohio Godz (as you no doubt figured out by now)

Wed. 2/23/11 9:09pm
ADM:
Allmusic says "not to be confused"

Wed. 2/23/11 9:13pm
efd:
and yet you were! :)

Wed. 2/23/11 9:16pm
ADM:
I never forget to look for Haackula.

Wed. 2/23/11 9:19pm
Frisco Squid:
I was first familiar with the 79 Godz - still remember seeing an ad for the album on the back of Circus magazine. Discovery of the ESP-Disk Godz initially confused the hell outta me too.

Wed. 2/23/11 9:19pm
efd:
f. squid, that was the path I took as well!

Wed. 2/23/11 9:25pm
john:
Makes three of us! But as I am in pretty much eternal awe of ESP-Disk, I got past it.

Wed. 2/23/11 9:51pm
Louis:
Curt Gowdy, what a hack. I mail-ordered that LP after the '73 season, they sent me what I thought was a demo cassette, instead. After all these years I see this is how they actually released the album!

Wed. 2/23/11 9:52pm
john:
There's STILL nothing that brings me back to that happy place like a Cleon Jones highlight reel...

Wed. 2/23/11 9:53pm
andy s:
wow. i grew up in cincinnati in the seventies, so this is really nostalgic. do you remember this stuff firsthand?

Wed. 2/23/11 9:56pm
efd:
I actually remember elements of the '69 series more than '73, strangely -- *really* strangely since I grew up outside Boston.

Wed. 2/23/11 9:57pm
efd:
Also, Louis, I'll have to respectfully disagree with your characterization of Curt Gowdy, at least when it comes to broadcasting.

steve:
Heh...my private space was being invaded by my landlord and his wife. As it happened, Buckner's Bolero was playing just loud enough to really piss the landlord off (he is a die-hard Red Sox fan). Still, what really got his goat was his wife asking why he was so mad. Of course, I had to explain it all in minute detail. Guess I won't see that guy until the rend is due. Also, good thing I"m moving in April

Wed. 2/23/11 9:58pm
Kat:
Hoodoo Gurus!

Wed. 2/23/11 9:59pm
efd:
See, as a Red Sox fan, "Buckner's Bolero" doesn't make me mad at all - I feel like he's putting the whole thing in context and minimizing that one play as the sole reason the Sox didn't win that year.

Wed. 2/23/11 10:01pm
Joe B:
yeah, why would that make him mad? I guess if you are looking for a scapegoat, you don't wanna hear it wasn't just one guy's fault.

Wed. 2/23/11 10:02pm
gloopin:
yes

Wed. 2/23/11 10:03pm
efd:
what up gloopin!

Wed. 2/23/11 10:07pm
andy s:
never really liked the guy, but i had a poster of pete rose in my room when i was a kid. it showed rose trotting around the bases after a a home run after he went after buddy harrelson. (god, how come i remember this shit and not what my girl said last night?) pete rose: very typical dumb german west side cincinnati guy. joe morgan was my man.

Wed. 2/23/11 10:49pm
JMD:
Did you play the LP version? It sounded a little less rockin' as I recall. Likewise, selective memory most likely.

Wed. 2/23/11 10:50pm
john:
I seem to recall the single version being very different too.

Wed. 2/23/11 10:52pm
Carolyn:
Great show Evan. I'm turning it up!

Wed. 2/23/11 10:52pm
Danne D:
I'm very excited Evan :) Though I still might throw out the random guess here or there anyway as far as the other "D" list celebrity. Wait - you don't have Kathy Griffin in your phone room do you?!? :D

Wed. 2/23/11 10:55pm
Danne D:
What if the person changes their name to IBM, Evan?

Wed. 2/23/11 11:12pm
Danne D:
ugh the one night i wanna call and it's the other number

Wed. 2/23/11 11:14pm
Frisco Squid:
The new Joke album is a nice return to form. And they were stellar when I saw 'em in December.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:14pm
Danne D:
536 it's 536 right?

Wed. 2/23/11 11:14pm
Parq:
Hey, Danne. Worked late, so trying to cram a whole evening into two hours. Kinda like that show in the 60s about the guy with the terminal illness. "Run For Your Life", I think it was called.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:15pm
Parq:
Evan, working really hard on resisting the urge to pogo to this KJoke number.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:16pm
Danne D:
"work is like a terminal illness" - sounds like a good punk song

Wed. 2/23/11 11:24pm
efd:
Hey Danne, the off-air number is the same; it's the on-air number that's different.

Parq, why resist?!

Joe, funny, Cleveland was the team PIT was playing when I was there and Donnie Iris played.

Snortley, I was struck by a sudden urge to get those Elton John CDs a few weeks ago; I couldn't wait for the record fair. Even so they're only like $7 new.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:24pm
Steve L:
This set is going to make me late for work tomorrow.

Thanks!

Wed. 2/23/11 11:26pm
Danne D:
LOL - well I assume the tix are gone by now?

Was too busy processing whether I could go on the given date (and its relation to the marathon) that I totally missed the number. Just didn't want to guess and call some poor person at 11pm with a wrong number.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:29pm
Danne D:
Maybe I'll head out to one of the shows anyway :)

Wed. 2/23/11 11:29pm
Holly in NC:
Hi all! Evan, great show. Well duh ;-) Luddite that I am, I prefer New Math to JBB,but nonetheless lovely to hear any version of Invocation.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:39pm
Danne D:
It's like 4 degrees in this Starbucks but I'm gonna stick it out through this air check :)

Have a great night everyone! See you soon Evan :)

Wed. 2/23/11 11:40pm
efd:
Danne, I'll send out info about the fantasy baseball league after the marathon.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:42pm
Danne D:
Great Evan :) The rest of the show will be from my warm car :) Gbye again all

Wed. 2/23/11 11:50pm
Holly in NC:
This is by FAR the best version of 13 (wo)men ever! Love it. Since I learned of this version from 'Hang It Out to Dry' I now expect to hear Richard & the Young Lions...

Wed. 2/23/11 11:52pm
efd:
Haha Holly, I was thinking that too! Especially with Harry Harrison lingering in the air.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:52pm
Parq:
Evan, you are totally rocking the reminiscence tonight. I've had a dozen "omigod, I remember this song" moments easy.

Wed. 2/23/11 11:55pm
12539:
I was afraid of jinxing things if I said anything earlier, but this show has been even more awesome than usual, Evan.
